ONE LAST THING.
Digital tachograph card!!! No one said anything about it, but we need to BUY one from DVLA. It is different from the Driver CPC card and needs to be BOUGHT from DVLA for £32.
As I just found out, anyone can order one, once they have a driving license. So, if you’re reading through this post from start to finish and you have a car driving license, ORDER A DIGITAL TACHOGRAPH CARD NOW!!! DVLA says it takes up to 15 working days, however one guy on this forum said he got his 6 days after he posted it.
I ordered mine on Tuesday (19/09/2017) or Thursday (21/09/2017), and I got it today (26/09/2017). Pretty quick and this is a NEW card, but just updating the Driving License takes ages. Is it because we fork out all of £32 for the Driver Card and nothing for the Driving License, even though we paid to take the test? I don’t know……
My Driver CPC card came on Thursday (28/09/2017) and my Driver’s License came a day later, Friday (29/09/2017) just under 14 days after my test.
END OF UPDATES!!!
